Influence of pH, sucrose concentration and agitation speed on exopolysaccharide production by Lactobacillus confusus TISTR 1498 using coconut water as a raw material substitute

Coconut water (CW) was used as a complex nitrogen source for exopolysaccharide (EPS) production by Lactobacillus confusus TISTR 1498 to reduce the cost of fermentation medium. EPS production was carried out in a bioreactor using (0.5×) modified MRS-sucrose-CW medium, in which three relatively expens...
